I think the infusion of glycerin and ethanol into my blood stream has also had an some detrimental effects on my spelling ability also, but what the heck the EPA and OSHA hasn't said anything yet. Can't wait for my own class action law suit.:D

I'm sure we've all ingested and/or absorbed way over the RDA of many toxic chemicals and controlled substances during our years in shops, garages and pit areas.
Dad, I'm impressed that you can spell glycerin and ethanol...

Spell check!

Bob, Jim

As a very young kid I used to sit down on the side walk beside our house and eat the paint chips that fell off the house, I thought those chips were very tasty, I really liked the green ones. As I got older I would seek out all the old thermostats in the neighborhood that people had thrown away, break them and put the Mercury in an old bluing bottle to make my dimes shine more or we would spread the stuff out on the dirt and play marbles with the beads of Mercury. Had the EPA been around then I am sure I would already be dead.

If you have bleed it with the bleeders facing up and you don't have much pedal....very likely a master cylinder. Often a bad master cylinder won't have any pedal, but not always. Could be a loose line, or worn brake piston bore sucking air or fitting sucking air. Sometimes when people bleed the system and they are using the pedal, the pedal doesn't have enough throw and it doesn't move enough fluid to bleed the system properly.
